Transcript
- 1:34Hello ladies and gentlemen, my name is Brett Keen from God TV
- 1:37radio. I hope you're all having a
- 1:40wonderful day out there looks like everything's working
- 1:43wonderful. Or is it?
- 1:46Yeah, it's working. So I felt like we should have a
- 1:52conversation folks. I've been getting emails as well
- 1:58as comments from people. who are wondering if I'm going to do, be
- 2:03the next Mark Stoney, or if I'm going to be like an atheist,
- 2:07junior, or a Sunday Lincoln because I feel disappointed with
- 2:13the results and the conclusion Of the event that happened
- 2:20between myself and Ken told them that will I become a hater?
- 2:26Will I become someone who relentlessly goes after Kent
- 2:30hovind and take all the positive things I've ever learned from
- 2:35him or absorbed from him, and put it into my own, some of my
- 2:40own apologetics and arguments, my simply going to throw them
- 2:44out the window. Am I going to make videos where
- 2:48I tried to destroy Ken Tobin's character or the man himself?
- 2:53Am I going to spend hours on top of hours editing videos and
- 2:59trying to grab anything that he might say.
- 3:02That sounds like a discrepancy, your account or addiction, and
- 3:06try to humiliate him all throughout his life.
- 3:10No no I'm not going to be another hater or another critic
- 3:18of Ken told them but I will tell you this I identify and relate
- 3:24with your problems. I understand now fully after two
- 3:29years of doing shows with Kent hovind and interacting with him
- 3:36and having conversations with them, I think I understand what
- 3:40the Problem is that everybody? It cries about and gets upset
- 3:45about it, took me. I just kind of sat back for a
- 3:49few days thinking to myself and also, reflecting on some of the
- 3:55conversations that I've had with Christians, as well as
- 3:58non-believers since my video where I Allowed my anger to show
- 4:04through and my disappointment about what happened for those
- 4:09who may not have seen the video. I felt as though in Tobin, was
- 4:15something else than what I expected, like Cindy Lincoln who
- 4:20went down there to have a relationship with him and a
- 4:24marriage and wanted a family where she wanted to be involved,
- 4:29and she felt like she was doing something cool for God, and And
- 4:33and that Kent was like a god unto himself.
- 4:37She was duly disappointed by her relationship, her friendships.
- 4:44And I guess after it was all said and done some people turn
- 4:48their back on her and some people remained her friend.
- 4:53She managed to successfully get people to agree with her and
- 4:57then they helped her out. And some of those people are
- 5:00still helping her out and People have what is referred to as
- 5:05flip-flopped right back to control them.
- 5:11And I understand why they flip-flopped.
- 5:13I understand why people are for Cindy and why people are for
- 5:18Kent and why people are four marks Tony and why some people
- 5:22even listen to some of the atheist out there, even from the
- 5:26Christian Camp where you're saying to yourself?
- 5:28Yeah I get it, I get it. And some of you, you don't
- 5:32absolutely understand what so ever.
- 5:34And some of you just don't downright care whatsoever, which
- 5:39I can clearly Early. See that marks, Tony notices
- 5:41these things, and the Lincoln notices, I however, doubt that
- 5:46can told them is actually really noticing.
- 5:52But I'm not going to be one of those people.
- 5:54I'm not going to. I've been disappointed all my
- 5:57life. I've had a lot of things that
- 5:59just didn't go my way. I've been involved in
- 6:04friendships and relationships where you have these
- 6:08expectations for people where you expect them to be a certain
- 6:12way? Or you get this, like surface
- 6:15idea of who they are. There's like a honeymoon period
- 6:18where everything seems awesome and cool.
- 6:21We even get to the point in your life, where you feel like you
- 6:24just can't live without that person.
- 6:26You can't function and less there with you.
- 6:29It's almost like a codependency where you feel like that person
- 6:33has become a part of your soul, and when they disappoint you, or
- 6:37they do something out of character, or they go from being
- 6:41a hero to all mammals, like, sitting on the line of villain
- 6:46to you. It's a, it's a shocker, it's
- 6:50stunning. that can cause a mild trauma to a person.
- 6:58Whenever someone that you think that you knew or that you
- 7:02understood is not what you expected them to be.
- 7:06So I completely relate, I completely identify but I'm just
- 7:10not going to handle. I'm not going to dedicate my
- 7:14life to go on after someone like that.
- 7:18Like the way you guys do. You see long ago, I made a
- 7:26decision in my life that this world fails.
- 7:31I made a decision that people are not going to live up to my
- 7:37expectations. I have come to the realization.
- 7:42That things are not. Always going to go my way.
- 7:46But I've also learned a valuable thing that a lot of people out
- 7:50there including atheist and religious, people have never
- 7:53learned how to do. I've learned how to Not get the
- 7:59results, are the conclusion or the thing that I fought for.
- 8:04I have learned how to lose. I have learned how to fail.
- 8:07I have learned how to make mistakes and learn from them and
- 8:12do something different. When something that I've
- 8:14repeatedly tried to do doesn't work.
- 8:19There's always going to be that anger, obviously, I'm a human
- 8:22being. There's always going to be that
- 8:24annoyance. When something doesn't go your
- 8:27way are when you come to the realization that you worked
- 8:30very, very hard and you still ain't going to get what you want
- 8:35out of it. I have learned how to deal with
- 8:39that. And I've learned that the only
- 8:41way to be able to live my life is just a move forward and be
- 8:44able to accept things based upon what the world has given me.
- 8:50I've also come to the realization that there's no
- 8:53reason to be entitled. Or have obligations at all with
- 9:00people. And that's really, really helped
- 9:03me out as a person. To realize that what I expect
- 9:08may not be the same desires and Ambitions of other people.
- 9:15Hmm, I am thirsty. I had a vision that and when I
- 9:23say Vision I'm not talking about like some kind of burning bush,
- 9:28man at the station where God speaks to me telling me what I
- 9:32ought to do kind of thing, but a vision like that of an idea of
- 9:37what I wanted to do with my channel and what I want to do
- 9:40with what some would call a Ministry.
- 9:43I'm not a preacher I'm not a priest.
- 9:46I'm not ever going to run some kind of mega church or anything
- 9:50like that but what I will do is I will make my videos and I will
- 9:53express myself. I've also learned something
- 9:58really valuable about Christianity and Atheism and I
- 10:02do not want to fall into the hole that many of you out there
- 10:05have fallen into. I am not going to attempt to
- 10:09live according to someone else's image or what their idea of me
- 10:14is to be as well. I'm going to Continue to be
- 10:20myself and I'm going to continue, to be honest.
- 10:23Whenever I feel like I'm not getting through to somebody.
- 10:27I'm going to be honest with you and tell you look, I failed at
- 10:31the so I made a mistake at this or I made a mistake with
- 10:35someone. I'm going to tell you, whenever
- 10:39I'm angry, I'm going to tell you whenever I'm happy.
- 10:42I'm not going to try to hide behind an image and smile at
- 10:46you. Whenever I'm feeling absolutely
- 10:47miserable. I'm not going to tell you that
- 10:50everything's going to be okay or everything's fair in this world
- 10:54because I'd be lying to you and I don't want to bear false
- 10:57witness. It's pretty clear at this point
- 11:01in my Junction in life that I was never meant to be the guy
- 11:04who wear suits and ties. It's obvious that I am not the
- 11:09guy that's ever going to create or construct a compound where
- 11:12tons of people are going to live.
- 11:15I've always had this dream that, I'd like to live, learn
- 11:17something like a ranch, I'd like to have animals.
- 11:21I would like to be able to have people around me where I help
- 11:25them and I'm help better their life and all that I was tempted
- 11:28for Quite some time to go down to Dinosaur Adventure Land and
- 11:35become a part of that whole deal.
- 11:40I actually thought, man, if I moved up my entire family and
- 11:46lived down there, I could have a place to stay my own little
- 11:50space. I might get treated like royalty
- 11:53sander and Kent told me. They would love to treat me like
- 11:56royalty if I was down there, but I wasn't looking to be treated
- 12:00like a king or treated like loyalty or royalty, I was
- 12:05wanting simply to have a Christian Community.
- 12:08I wanted to be a part of something.
- 12:11That could change the world and make an impact in a positive
- 12:14way. I wanted to actually Selfishly
- 12:20because of my lack of family and loyal friendships that I have, I
- 12:25have a lot of friends that are loyal, but you can never have
- 12:28too many. You know what I mean?
- 12:30You can always use a good friend that you can count on that is
- 12:33Dependable that loves you, and, and honors, you and respect you.
- 12:37And we'll also disagree with you whenever you're wrong.
- 12:40So you won't continue to go into a bad Direction.
- 12:43You could always use someone like that, who has the courage
- 12:47to tell you, but Wrong about something.
- 12:50Brett. This is not the route that you
- 12:52want to go people like that. They truly love you and care
- 12:55about you, they're telling you something's wrong.
- 12:59Some people can't handle that, though.
- 13:01Some people cannot handle criticism and they will
- 13:05immediately go into slit throat mode where, oh, you don't like
- 13:10what I'm doing. You don't agree with me.
- 13:12So that's the end of you type of attitude.
- 13:19And I've actually had to have that attitude towards some
- 13:21people to there's some people were, I felt like what they did
- 13:25to me was so ignorant and so nasty that I just said to
- 13:29myself, I would be better off in life if this person simply did
- 13:33not exist that, I never look at them and I never talk to them
- 13:37again, and that's a problem. I struggled with in
- 13:41Christianity, for a long time. I don't do the whole love your
- 13:44enemy do unto others, very good at all, I Appreciate that.
- 13:49A lot of you out there. Think that you're doing exactly
- 13:52what Jesus told you to do. I appreciate the fact that you
- 13:56think that not doing the things that you used to do, and that
- 13:59you're not cussing and that you're all clean-cut looking
- 14:03all, beautiful. That you somehow are impressing
- 14:07God in some, kind of way, by the way you're doing, but I have
- 14:11this weird idea. The God loves me for just who I
- 14:15am. I don't believe that God makes
- 14:18junk. I think that once God creates
- 14:20people, he creates people beautiful.
- 14:23And then for whatever reason, they decide they want to cut all
- 14:26their hair off and dye it pink and purple and green and and put
- 14:31metal in their face. So they look like Shredder off.
- 14:33Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Some people that can't stop
- 14:39eating too many cookies like myself.
- 14:42And you end up, you know, blowing up like a damn balloon
- 14:45and then you're asking no, jeez boy.
- 14:48It's so hard getting around now. I think that God originally
- 14:53created everything. Perfect, everything, beautiful.
- 14:57Every little baby that comes into the world, looks beautiful
- 15:00and perfect. And my eyes.
- 15:02I've been, I spent years at Children's Hospital.
- 15:06I seen a lot of babies, even the ones that were sick, even the
- 15:09ones that were dying. They were beautiful.
- 15:13They were beautiful. And unfortunately, some of them
- 15:17had the blessing of being able to go home with their moms and
- 15:20dads. Others did not Not some of them
- 15:23didn't even have parents to go home to even if they did heal up
- 15:26from their sicknesses. I've come to the realization
- 15:33that Brett Gene is going to be who bright Quinones and Brett
- 15:37Keynes, not going to let anybody be an obstacle to him.
- 15:43If you wondering why I decided to make this video, it's not
- 15:46because I'm apologizing to Kent. It's not because I'm apologizing
- 15:51to Mark or Cindy. I'm telling you all that.
- 15:54I understand why you do the things you do now I didn't
- 15:58understand a few days ago with Kent.
- 16:03It took a lot of lot of real thought and thinking aren't it,
- 16:06but I think I got you all figured out now.
- 16:12I think Cindy wanted something beautiful.
- 16:14She wanted to live in a castle. She wanted to be treated like a
- 16:18princess. He wanted to be a part of
- 16:21something that she thought was changing the world or doing
- 16:24something great. And instead, she didn't get what
- 16:28she wanted in any of that, the man that she married to turn out
- 16:33to be the man that she expected him to be the place, did not
- 16:37turn out to be what she expected it to be.
- 16:39The people around her, did not turn out to be what was expected
- 16:44and she gave her whole identity in life to it.
- 16:47And now, she doesn't even know who she is.
- 16:50She doesn't know who she is as a person, and she is literally
- 16:53traumatized by that. Mark Stone.
- 16:57He was raising his daughter up in an environment like this
- 17:01where he had the same admiration probably even more than I did
- 17:07for a guy. Like Kent Mark told me one time
- 17:11when we were having a conversation that he didn't just
- 17:14see Kent as a preacher or the guy who runs Dinosaur Island,
- 17:18who does our Adventure Land as just a preacher or a man of God.
- 17:26Mark seen him as a father figure.
- 17:30He seen a man who had been in prison, who had a lot of things
- 17:36go wrong in his life, a guy who's failed.
- 17:40But looked good on camera said, everything that Christians would
- 17:44ever want to hear Kent Holden was the perfect image of what a
- 17:49man of God should be. So whenever Mark went down
- 17:55there, that's exactly what he expected to run into.
- 17:59He didn't want to run into a person that had chinks in their
- 18:02armor. A person that was all screwed
- 18:07up. Mark was looking for a He was
- 18:15looking for our father that he never had.
- 18:21He was looking to get away from the world and he wanted to be,
- 18:24he wanted his reality, the change.
- 18:29This was a man who served in the military and he had seen a lot
- 18:32of bad things and he wanted to escape, but he thought that this
- 18:36was going to be his medication. His psychological break away
- 18:40from all the evil and corruption in the world and be a part of
- 18:44something that was actually good.
- 18:45That only pushed Positive Vibes, his disappointment was severe He
- 18:53came to the realization that the man that he loved and cared
- 18:56about and looked up to his father.
- 18:59Would not be anything near what he expected or wanted.
- 19:08To him. It was like, finding out that
- 19:15the devil was good at wearing a mask.
- 19:23That's what he found out. I found out that my expectations
- 19:31where I wanted to be a friend I wanted to also have some form of
- 19:35family as well. I was never never served in the
- 19:38military. I never I don't know what it's
- 19:41like to point a gun at someone with the intention or awaiting
- 19:46an order or command and someone else's life.
- 19:50I don't have an idea what that feels like are what that is
- 19:53about. But I do know what it's like
- 19:56trying to. Look at someone and say I'd
- 20:02really really like to have a close friendship with this
- 20:06person. I would really like to share in
- 20:10what it is at this person's talking about an involved in And
- 20:16when you have those type of feelings, what follows after as
- 20:20you want them to notice you too, you want them to reward you with
- 20:25kind words or support. You want them to realize that
- 20:31you're important, too. That you mean something that you
- 20:33have value. you feel inside your head that if you say all these
- 20:40great things about them and you're constantly lifting them
- 20:43up and treating their Ministry, like it's the greatest thing in
- 20:47the planet to sometimes, every once in a while, you want to
- 20:52hear I love you. I care about you, I respect what
- 20:59you're doing and what you have to say, means something that you
- 21:03could be great. There's so much that you could
- 21:08do Sometimes you would just want to hear.
- 21:13I think you're onto something. I think that you you have
- 21:17potential and I want to support you.
- 21:19I want to help you. And sometimes our family doesn't
- 21:25do that, do they? Sometimes our friends do not say
- 21:30the right things and sometimes we tell them, we literally give
- 21:34them. We, we explain an articulate and
- 21:37communicate to these people that we love and care about.
- 21:41We say I have needs. I have things that I that I'm
- 21:45trying to do to that, I want to do.
- 21:50And unfortunately sometimes it just falls on deaf ears.
- 21:54People don't hear it, they don't care.
- 21:58And that just breaks your damn heart.
- 22:01That's rough. But my heart's been broken into
- 22:08a billion pieces. My faith has been challenged
- 22:12every single day of my life. I have more questions about
- 22:18anything and everything than any of you could possibly even be
- 22:22able to fathom. Had some of you taken the time
- 22:26to actually get to know me and see me as a person that I am.
- 22:30You would have discovered that. I'm not just this thing that you
- 22:34see on video had. You looked beyond the image.
- 22:39Beyond the idol or whatever. It is word, you want to throw in
- 22:43there and fill in the blank with you would have realized that.
- 22:47Hey, when this guy is not talking about God and when this
- 22:51guy is not having these philosophical arguments, when
- 22:55this guy's not running the show, this is a man who's just trying
- 22:59to survive in a really fucking ignorant.
- 23:01Terrible evil world. This is a guy who has suffered,
- 23:07this is a guy that knows. What it's like to have.
- 23:10People beat the ever-loving shit out of him emotionally and Scar
- 23:16him in every way possible. And he's not going to ever be a
- 23:24perfect man. at the best, you're going to get a person who was
- 23:31good at duct taping, all the breaks and the cracks and all
- 23:34the Braille vulnerable areas that have been attacked at the
- 23:41best. You're going to get someone.
- 23:42Who understands what it means to be broken.
- 23:45What it means to suffer, what it means to walk through hell.
- 23:51Back and forth, back and forth and know what that damn heat
- 23:55feels like. That's what you'll get out of
- 23:58Brett Keane. Some of you out there, you
- 24:02announced to me through emails, as well as comments.
- 24:06You said, Brad, I only subscribe to you because you were
- 24:10associated with Kent old. And for the time, being I only
- 24:14came to your channel because I wanted to see Kent on the show.
- 24:18I didn't give a rat's ass about what you had to say or what you
- 24:21had to think. Some of you.
- 24:24You you claim to be crushed and then you told me, basically that
- 24:27you don't care about me that you don't care about what I have to.
- 24:31Say that you're only there because your favorite preacher
- 24:34is going to be on TV soon. God TV radio.
- 24:42But believe it or not. Even though a lot of people
- 24:47would have felt like absolutely miserable Mike shit for people
- 24:51saying, things like that to them woman are ma'am.
- 24:57I've been through that before, I've been through that 100 times
- 25:01where all's I have to do is simply disagree with a big-time
- 25:05popular person on YouTube disagree with somebody's views,
- 25:11and the community that happens have more subscribers than I do.
- 25:16And I've learned that no matter if I'm right about what I'm
- 25:19saying, that, no matter how much evidence, I demonstrate no
- 25:23matter what I say, but some people get to a point where
- 25:28they're so popular on YouTube. Some preachers are so popular
- 25:33that they can literally eat a baby on a TV screen and you
- 25:38would somehow still justify it and defend it in every single
- 25:41way. I get that.
- 25:46I understand that. You know.
- 25:54I watched for over a year and a half where there was this
- 25:57Christian who was absolutely abusive, it would speak violence
- 26:02against as audience if anybody disagreed with him.
- 26:05He would say that he would hurt them.
- 26:08He would say that they were pieces of shit.
- 26:10He would call them cockroaches and every name in the book and
- 26:14they still followed him, like, little ants being led to a
- 26:18volcano. And I couldn't understand For
- 26:22Life me. Why are people doing that?
- 26:24Why are they going to the volcano for and just diving into
- 26:28this fire? Why are they allowing themselves
- 26:30to be gaslighted by this Christian guy?
- 26:34And I told, you know, I tried warning people, but somehow I
- 26:38ended up the bad guy for being the person who pointed this out.
- 26:43And like I said, it wasn't the first time I've exposed
- 26:46countless non-believers as well as religious people who were
- 26:51extremely popular. And I ended up basically at the
- 26:54end of it, all being the asshole.
- 27:00But eventually, what happens with people like this?
- 27:05Those poor sad. Little Christians.
- 27:07Who followed that guy? They ended up finding out that
- 27:12he was a rapist. Yeah. they found out that that
- 27:18guy was a rapist and not just a rapist of some woman, which is
- 27:23terrible enough, but a rapist of children and they followed that
- 27:27fucking guy and some of them still do The guy went to jail,
- 27:39the guy got himself in serious trouble and then he came to
- 27:44YouTube and started to pretend the Zoe was some great ministry,
- 27:48Christian who was smarter than all the other Christians who
- 27:52thought he was bright and intelligent and no matter what I
- 27:55said, the people, no matter what I told them, nobody listened.
- 27:59And I got to tell you that was a scruciating.
- 28:02I can't tell you how many times I prayed to God and said, God,
- 28:06why are these people fooled? Why are they so deceived?
- 28:10How is this possible, why would they just sit there and allow
- 28:14someone to crush them everyday and abuse them and treat them
- 28:17like, dog? Shut And then I realize that a
- 28:22lot of these people, the reason why they follow a predator or a
- 28:26bad person, or a shitty person on the internet is because a lot
- 28:30of these people are lonely. They don't have family, they
- 28:32don't have very many friends and for them it feels like they're
- 28:36part of a community I suppose. To them.
- 28:40It's like, yeah, it's a broken Community.
- 28:42It's not ever going to be perfect but at least, I'm
- 28:46acknowledged as a person at least, you know, even if I'm
- 28:50being called a cockroach or a piece of shed at least
- 28:53somebody's noticing me and I'm Not Invisible.
- 28:57I guess that's what it is. Dealt with another guy.
- 29:08The same way another guy about 5 years ago.
- 29:14Who would get up on these live rooms and he was considered the
- 29:19most respected and appreciated Christian of all times.
- 29:23And this fucking guy turned out to be a pretty bad one as well.
- 29:28And I warn people about that. I told people about this, I
- 29:33didn't make like video after video after video, like, some
- 29:36people do on the internet, but I found out that the guy had child
- 29:41porn all over his computer. Router along with all of his
- 29:45Bible tracks and Bible Software where you can find verses and
- 29:49passages to defend and justify all of this sentence.
- 29:57But according to him, and his followers.
- 30:00He had been saved and he was always saved.
- 30:05He would always be saved, no matter what he did because he's
- 30:08in the hands of God. So, for the last six years of
- 30:14me, being a theist, being a new Christian, there's a lot of
- 30:19things I've learned. I remember whenever I was an
- 30:23atheist, I used to ask, how is it possible that whenever you
- 30:28find out that a Catholic priest is right the child or done some,
- 30:31sick shit are manipulated some kid into doing shit like that.
- 30:35How is it possible that the church instead of turning them
- 30:39in and following the law and having that person put away in a
- 30:44cage, somewhere where they belong, our bury their ass,
- 30:48under the present? How is it that they still?
- 30:51They just simply get moved around.
- 30:53Like nothing ever happened and those kids end up either growing
- 30:58up and becoming fully broken or they killed themselves because
- 31:01they don't feel value in their lives anymore.
- 31:05How is that possible? That a bunch of people of God,
- 31:08would do such a thing. After seeing all the shit that I
- 31:14have seen in this existence in life, from The Atheist community
- 31:19in the religious community. I had to, I had a few choices
- 31:26that I could choose to do with myself.
- 31:28There's a person I could choose to go into the coat closet,
- 31:32fucking hang myself, but that would have sucked because I've
- 31:36already had family members that did that, and that was horrible,
- 31:40that made everybody feel like shit, and that's caused a lot of
- 31:44trauma in my own family. I got kids, I got a wife, I got
- 31:50responsibilities and I can't just fucking break under
- 31:54pressure. Or the other option is to be
- 31:58like one of you out there where I just simply keep getting
- 32:01called a cockroach and used as a doormat and abused, that's
- 32:06definitely not something I want to do.
- 32:10Or there's the other option. I completely throw the baby out
- 32:14with the bathwater where I say fine.
- 32:17There's no God, there's no nothing.
- 32:21This is all there is you better get used to it?
- 32:25But that doesn't work either because I can't stop holding to
- 32:29the idea that there's a higher power.
- 32:32I can't stop believing that there's more to the universe and
- 32:36what there is. What is this far as it comes to
- 32:47God though? Excuse me.
- 32:58I've accepted that God is not going to do everything that I
- 33:02expect. Sometimes God is going to let
- 33:06some really really fucked up shit happen in this world and a
- 33:11finger will not be lifted to stop it.
- 33:16It has come to my attention that God is most likely going to
- 33:20continue to let bullshit happen for a long long period of time.
- 33:25Probably long after I'm dead and you my friends are going to
- 33:31watch the news and you are going to see what's going on social
- 33:34media, and you were going to see Wars.
- 33:36You are going to see death. You're going to see misery, you
- 33:39are going to see innocent children, suffer and hurt.
- 33:44And there's not a damn thing. You're going to do about it.
- 33:48Either because you're a coward or because you don't have the
- 33:51money or the wealth are the care Charisma to do anything about it
- 33:56or you don't have the political pull.
- 34:01Or you're going to be one of those people who profit off of
- 34:05other people's suffering, and you have absolutely no
- 34:08motivation whatsoever to help out the poor.
- 34:11Little cockroaches on the ground because you are getting Bank,
- 34:16you are making money and you're doing great for yourself.
- 34:19So there ain't no fucking reason whatsoever that you ought to
- 34:23make a move even though you could at any time You guys want
- 34:33to know a mistake? I'm a long time ago with
- 34:36religion. One of the mistakes I made.
- 34:41And my perception of Christianity, as well as.
- 34:45Whenever I was an atheist and as he crushed in, I always had this
- 34:50weird idea that people had a good side to them.
- 34:55That there was a that everyone had some kind of good in them
- 35:00even atheist. I always believed that everybody
- 35:04out there because they've been designed by God that God
- 35:08designed morals and everyone including the skeptic, even the
- 35:12most skeptical atheist out there.
- 35:14Even the most hardcore atheist, I'd always believed, especially
- 35:18looking at myself and reflecting that, if I can change and other
- 35:24people can change but I realized over long periods of time and
- 35:34experiencing the human race, That I'm unique.
- 35:39I'm a special case and not because God said, so it's just
- 35:44simply because I sat back one day and said this is not the way
- 35:49I want to be. I didn't need God to tell me
- 35:53that I wanted to be a better person.
- 35:55I just said to myself, I need to be the best father, I can, I
- 35:59don't want to be like my parents.
- 36:02I don't want to be one of these fake-ass people who wear an
- 36:06image in front of you. And then once they have you and
- 36:09your, their clutches and they think they've earned your trust
- 36:14that they're just going to crush you.
- 36:24I decided long ago that although I'm going to make mistakes and
- 36:29I'm going to have problems. I'd rather people.
- 36:34This is going to come off weird but I'd rather people hate me
- 36:39for who I am. Then love me for something.
- 36:43I'm not
